Matthias Pintscher

Pierre Boulez always conceived his concert programmes with the most recent works placed within the modern tradition reaching back to the Second Viennese School. For this tribute to the composer who died in January 2016, his preferred music by Schoenberg and Webern has been chosen, music which had a profound influence on his own score sur Incises (1998) and in which, as he often liked to do, he elaborates on his own Incises for piano from 1994.
